City Council Minutes 14 April 19, 2005 sewer line is oversized and can handle future development, although the issue is treatment capacity at the plant. Mayor Pro Tem Ives asked for clarification regarding the fact that the City would not respond to property owners who wished to annex on a parcel by parcel basis. Mr. Reeds indicated that generally the property owners who voted to form the assessment district were on the eastern and western ends of the Larch Clover area. Rather than do eight annexations north of the mall it would make more sense to combine the parcels into one annexation. The City will determine the level of interest and map it. Mr. Reeds indicated the most likely scenario would be three annexations, one on the eastern side, one on the western side and one south of 1-205. Many of the parcels are narrow and deep and need to be assembled for a reasonable development pattern to occur. Council Member Talbert inquired how the City would handle a request from a single parcel in the middle of other parcels after the initial flurry of annexations had occurred. Mr. Reeds responded if the parcel had contiguity there would be no problem. Mayor Bilbrey added that LAFCO would not allow an "island"to develop.

It has to be done by the property owners who wish to be annexed, those on the easterly and westerly ends, and along the Corral Hollow corridor. It will be initiated by the property owners who support annexation. If it makes logical sense then it will proceed to LAFCO; if it does not then it would not go to LAFCO. Barbara Shreve, resident of Larch Road, stated she represented the landowners of four parcels on West Larch Road, and three parcels just south of Larch Road on Naglee Road who wanted to be annexed into the City as commercial property to be developed by one or more developers at their cost and with their cost of the infrastructure that will meet their needs. Ms. Shreve presented a petition to annex to the Council. Tim Shreve, 12284 Larch Road, commented his property was in the City's sphere, and requested to be annexed into the City limits. Tim Case, 10906 Larch Road, (east side of Larch/Clover area) expressed his desire to be annexed into the City not only for the sewer, but also for police and fire protection. Mayor Bilbrey indicated he sensed that those present would support a self- initiated process to annex. Byron Alvarez, 2311 S. Tracy Boulevard, (property owner next to Mr. Case), indicated he intended to build an office complex in the area and was in favor of annexation. Mayor Pro Tem Ives stated he agreed with staff in considering projects as they are brought forward in a group, such as the one proposed, but inquired how the
